Contactive

Contactive is a smart caller ID that runs a search of the caller through a various technologies. The information gathered is then shown on the incoming call screen. The other brands of Contactive are CalendarID and emailID where this information is pulled up in the respective verticals. I was in charge of the identity, product, visual, animation and spec design. Contactive was acquired by Thinking Phones in 2014.

Pulp Fiction - Kinetic Typography

Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction is one of my
favorite flicks. Right off the bat, this scene grabs
viewers in right away with Jules and Vincent
accosting some men in their apartment while
retrieving Marcellus Wallace’s briefcase back. I
played with masks, 3D layers and rotoscoping
to bring the text to life. Here are some
rerendered stills from the video.

My Homage to SJ

We found out about the news of Steve Jobs death in the late afternoon at our desks. An eerie silence followed the news until the end of the day. The news affected all of us differently. Some took bereavement time off, others laid flowers at IL1, I remembered Steve through this portrait.

The Impossible Alphabet

I am forever fascinated with geometric, swiss influenced design and optical illusions. This is a personal piece that pushed me to deconstruct a skeleton of a cube and repurpose it into an alphabet. Where possible, I made letters that are three-dimensionally impossible.

Two Rivers Movie Poster and Identity

Two Rivers is a short film directed by Melonie Gartner. I was commissioned to design and execute on the identity and marketing assets.

Kartel Delivery iOS App

This was my first project at IAC/Hatch Labs. Kartel Delivery enabled users to request a delivery of anything under 20lbs within reason and get it delivered in Manhattan for a flat fee. This video shows you the MVP from sign up to delivered item.

There Will Be Blood - Kinetic Typography

Hit play and enjoy what I created from one of the best scenes in There Will Be Blood with the use of kinetic typography. This was a really fun school project.

Infograph - What Your Coffee Mug Says About You

Kartel Delivery Iconography

Hi res 3D icons made for Kartel Delivery.

Harley Roadster

Art school had a lot of cool projects. This photo-realistic illustration demonstrates my fastidiousness and technical knowledge of graphic design programs. I’d probably kill myself if I owned a Harley so I did the second best thing and recreated one.

Out the Door

Charles Phan owns a few restaurants in San
Francisco which includes Out the Door and The
Slanted Door. At first, our
interactions were about technical issues with
their Power Mac running these menus on four
screens. I suggested that a cleaner menu with
subtle animations would be more captivating
over a static menu. They hired me as a freelance
designer to take on this project and after its
completion and implementation, to-go sales
went up by 25% the first week.
